Win! A VIP Experience at the Tour of Britain with road.cc and The Cycle Show

You could be living the VIP high life on Stage Two from Knowsley to Llandudno. Enter now!

Schwag up! If you're free next Monday (or can make yourself free) and you want to see the action from the Friends Life Tour of Britain at first hand, we've got a place in one of the official SKODA VIP cars up for grabs on stage 2 of the race, from Knowsley to Llandudno.

Not only do you get to drive the route in the race convoy and wave at the assorted crowds, you'll also get hospitality at the start and finish, and along the way too. It's a unique way to see a professional bike race. We recommend you try it. You're not allowed to stick your head out of the sunroof like the chap in the pic though. That's frowned upon.

This great prize comes to you courtesy of the chaps at The Cycle Show, which as you no doubt no already is the UK’s number 1 cycling exhibition, held this year from 26th – 28th September at the NEC in Birmingham. Featuring products from over 250 exhibitors and attracting an audience in excess of 25,000 people, the show is a must-visit event on the calendar of cycling enthusiasts. And if you're a road.cc reader we can get you money off, too!

Get £1.50 off your Cycle Show ticket

Head over to www.cycleshow.co.uk to book your ticket. Use code RCC when it asks you for one, and you'll get £1.50 off the normal entry price of £13.00. Kids under 14 get in for just £1.

To enter, just comment below. You have just 24 hours to comply.

Some small print

The prize is one VIP hospitality package including a ride in VIP car placed in the race convoy, during Stage Two of the Friends Life Tour of Britain, between Knowsley and Llandudno. Also including hospitality at the start, during and at the end of the stage. Package does not include travel to the start or from the finish of the event. Guests will be in the race convoy for the entirety stage and there will be very limited opportunity to stop for breaks.

I'd love this - marshaled at TDF and will be doing the same on stage 3 of Tour of Britain - this would be the icing on the cake the day before on stage 2!
